I still have absolutely no idea how to do zombie mode. Each time I’ve tried it, I’ve spawn in with 2 other randoms and they just ran off and did their own thing. Wtf are you supposed to do?

stick with them unless you want to do something else but let them know in text or voice

I just tell them I will follow the lead if you have anyone half decent they will work with you

first rule if you have nothing gather and loot as you move towards the first contract dont fear the zone 1 zombies unless you are in a confined space

I'm pretty clueless too. Had one decent run through it with a mate who is a novice and luckily put with some random who knew what he was doing and was super helpful. We extracted at the end along with another team who were fighting off a horde as we got there on a boat. Epic.
I'm definitely going to put more time into the zombies mode. Feels like Warzone crossed with Ghost Recon and Division. I like it, great concept plus I am absolutely **** at competitive MP these days :D

I just watched this, recommend it. Pretty short and to the point. I'm still unsure how the perks work but will likely figure it out with more play time.

if you get to an extract zone you can herd the zombies a little noise and they will follow like sheep
 
what guns are people using settled on a personal defence weapon (p90) have a couple of nice silenced models in my armory one pack a punch and its on 400 round mag with 800 in total

with the high rate of fire you can get a little carried away at times
 
I’m bordering on giving up with this game.

Shocking hit reg and server lags like the bad old days where replays clearly show you are being shot before you even have your gun up but that’s not the way it played out on your screen. Insta death is back with a vengeance too. Suddenly die but replay shows guy was shooting me before it registered in my screen.

Similarly I’m often getting just hit markers in 1 on 1 encounters - more than it should take to kill the enemy. Yet in replays I only seem to get hit with maybe 4 rounds and I’m down. One guy today I hit about 8-9 times within about 2 metres and he still didn’t die.

Also, this game is trying to force run and gun. Why have a sniper class/weapons at all if you won’t let snipers be snipers? Because of the lag and poor hit reg I’m trying to play at distance using sniper class.

Constantly being kicked for idle, or threatened with being kicked just because I’m playing as a sniper. I’m clearly not idle if I’m killing multiple people and moving backwards and forwards between corners and calling in streaks etc.

It’s a complete joke.
 
And another thing - 1 hit snipers getting damage reduction when shooting whilst moving, even at only medium range.

So many kill shots that weren’t kill shots when they should have been.

Can someone recommend some gun builds? I'm still using that first AR and it's not great.

It's funny that @Eddie99 posted that vid above, as this is the gun I posted in our Whatsapp group for others to try, same gun. It's an absolute beast, and that's not based on Youtube videos or anything, that's me going through the camos, getting to it and noticing an immense improvement in my performance:

Starting to really enjoy the game now, once you figure out the maps properly it's great. Oh and the sneaky sneakers or whatever they're called is quite possibly the most OP thing we've seen since OMA Noobtubing :D

Do you play as sniper?

With regard to run and gun, I tell you how it feels - most of the time I see someone, I’m dead before I can react.

But there’s also a lot of times where I start shooting first (on my screen at least) and I’m still dead, even though I’ve pumped round after round into them.

My M4 just isn’t killing anyone very easily at all and when I watch replays of kills on me, they seem to be having a much easier time of it and I die in far fewer hits than I landed on them.

Another thing that is happening a lot is killing a sniper that has just killed me. Literally, I die from a headshot just before I press fire and I still kill them even though on my screen I’m dead. Happened at least 4 times in Wasteland in one match earlier. Very weird.

People talk about higher base health and longer TTK on this game but it’s all one way for me. I don’t mind the longer TTK in the main but I die very easily and conversely I struggle to kill anything. I’m not the worlds best player but I can hold my own and have done so quite well over the last few releases in 1 on 1 gun fights. Very odd because the Beta actually played quite well and I don’t recall having these issues.

A thought that has just occurred to me - Perhaps it’s because I’m using a MW2 carry over M4 and not a new MW3 gun?
 
I did in mw2 a lot but been to busy in this to bother yet

are you using dlss or fsr ? used two carry over guns one works a treat was the Venomstrike blueprint minus the canted laser and rips

the other was a shotgun which couldnt even one shot a zombie in tier 1 was planning on testing some this weekend

Are you in your 30’s? Because this started happening to me as soon as I hit my 30’s and I still haven’t got any better. I used to be amazing at FPS on console lol.

I’m not sure about DLSS - don’t think I am. Will need to check settings. I’m on PS5 so I guess not?

I am playing on 120hz mode on my TV though. Not sure why that would be a problem though. Come to think of it I also had texture streaming turned on in MW2 and maybe that is not helping if the settings have carried over. I’m on a 500mbit FTTP line though, so it should be able to cope with texture streaming.

Worse.

40’s!! :cry:

Oh I hear ya - I’m not as quick as I used to be playing competitive twitch shooters when in my 20’s!!

BUT I also know when a problem is me being a bit rubbish and the game / server being a bit shonky. Happy to hold my hand up when it’s me, but I really don’t think this is me. At least not if I look at my capability in MW2, Cold War and MW2019 anyhow.

I’m not great, but I know I’m not this bad either!!

my friends have been having issues on ps5 as well so dont think you are alone
 
Yep - definitely seems like some of the issues I have been having are related to my “go to” MW2 gun build being really under powered. Even if on paper it’s as powerful etc as MW3 guns, it’s clear it isn’t. No way shape or how.

Switched to MW 3 assault rifles and it’s much better. Still awful netcode, spawns and OP stuff like covert sneakers but at least the TTK and accuracy is as it should be.

Still feels like hard work, but at least now I can actually kill enemies with an assault rifle!!

Anyone play this on Xbox series x? Can't believe they still have the weapon blur bug still in the game on MW3. It's not the monitor or a setting nothing my end. My mates have the same experience. I might have to pick it up for my ps5 as it's not an issue on that :(

If Rust, Estate or Wasteland come up then I quit. I'm also starting to dislike Invasion. The map itself is good but I'm finding that players who spawn at the embassy side of the map tend to just camp in the embassy :mad:

Why don't they just create a game mode where any player who stands still or within the same 1 meter radius for 5 seconds is suicided. That will force everyone to run around
